    It isn’t a popular choice but I like the Stan and Jack Adjective-less X-Men best of all the X-Men. (And doesn’t “Stan and Jack” sound like it’s a cheeky reference to something, y’know, like “Jack and Danny”.No? Oh.)

    Ah, back then. When a strange bald man with psychic powers could have a bunch of kids at his beck and call without any cheaply cynical eyebrows being raised. When just being a bit big boned and being hard to push over classed as a mutant power! When bad guys could be beaten by being wrestled! When the X-Men wore boiler suits! (O! How I love those original costumes, so drab yet glammy. (The magic’s in the creases. Jack Kirby knew.)) When Ice Man looked like he was made of snow! Until Wein & Cockrum the Adjective-less X-Men were the unloved runts of Jack Kirby’s litter but for this wee outcast (feared and hated by the world!) one of the purest and most long lasting pleasures comics has ever provided are the many Kirby penned images of these colourful characters battlin’, boundin’ and broodin’.

    Raise your hands to your temples, squint and, as the wavy lines of power emit from our collective foreheads, cry out: To me, my X-Men! To me!

    Excelsior!
